For learners under 25, every 1 hour of structured driving instruction with a qualified instructor counts as 3 hours in your logbook. This is capped at a maximum of 10 instructor hours, banking 30 logbook hours total.

 

Yes. If you started learning in a manual vehicle and want to switch to automatic to build confidence or pass your test sooner, all previous logbook hours remain 100% valid.

 

Initial lessons are conducted in our dual-controlled automatic vehicle for safety. Once your instructor assesses your core vehicle control, you can use your own registered, roadworthy automatic vehicle for test preparation sessions.

 

Practical driving tests are booked directly through the Service NSW website or over the phone. We recommend coordinating your test date with us beforehand so your instructor and training car are reserved for your exam session.

 

If you do not pass on your first try, Transport for NSW requires a mandatory 7-day waiting period before you can attempt the test again. We will review the testing officer’s feedback sheet and schedule targeted training sessions to fix specific mistakes before your re-test.
